Seven moons have gone by since that fateful day when Kerana was kidnapped by the evil one. For seven nights has the moon shone bleakly o the little girl's despair. Now Kerana is giving birth. She expects it to be a boy, but the curse of Arasy has had a monster begetting in her. Kerana bears an abhorrent monster with seven heads. Seven dog heads whose eyes are aflame. Seven dog heads and a revolting alligator body. It shall be known as Teju Jagua (Lizard-Dog). Seven dog heads that condemn it to idling. His ferocity was annihilated by Tupa's will and, despite its awful form, feeds only on fruit and honey taken to him to his hideout by his future younger brother, Jasy Jatere.
